[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1665878, member: 2736"] You are absolutely correct Mud. Thanks !! I stand corrected. Part of my list of AI cartridges came from Guns & Ammo and Shooting Times, so it looks like they took liberties in there writings. Here is one of the list I found with explanations. = [URL]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P.O._Ackley[/URL] It is one of the many Cartridges that follow the Ackley design that He tested. Still trying to find out if he did any testing on this cartridge. the 260 Rem started life as a wild cat like many cartridges of today, creative loaders/shooters experimented with many cartridges and later they became known as something else. The 6.5x08 started commercial life called a 6.5 08 A Square Then Remington re named it when they came out with the 260 Rem. To bad Remington has turned away from the innovations they once did. they also had one of the first true short Mags called the 6.5 Remington Magnum. I have also read that 6.5's were not popular in the US (They should see how wrong they were now days). Learn something every day On this site. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
